Soccer camp coming in late July

Soccer season is still months away but the West Side Recreation and Park District is giving kids a chance to get an early start when they offer a soccer camp in July.

The summer camp will be led by the Taft College coaches and players. The training program permits players to take their game to the next level. They simplify the game of soccer in an environment that is both enjoyable and disciplined.

The camp is open for boys and girls between the ages of 6-16 years old and will run Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9-11 a.m. from July 23 to August 1. The cost is $45 per person and it includes a t-shirt. Kids also need to bring a water bottle, soccer cleats and shin guards.

Camp will take place at Wrecker and the Taft High soccer fields. Registration deadline is Thursday, July 11.
